A Trail of Migrasomes, by Raviv Dharan
Fluorescence lifetime microscopy (FLIM) image of a migrating RPE1 cell stained with the mechanosensitive probe Flipper-TR, showing numerous migrasomes forming along retraction fibers. The color scale represents Flipper-TR fluorescence lifetime.The image reveals differences in membrane organization between the thin retraction fibers and the swollen migrasomes.

Nature's own Mandala - Journey of TRPM3, by Greeshma Jain
To study the TRPM3 ion channel in its native environment, we prepare plasma membrane-derived vesicles containing TRPM3 in native lipids. Cryo-electron microscopy images these vesicles, enabling reconstruction of the channel’s three-dimensional structure. My mandala-inspired artwork depicts this journey from cellular membrane to molecular architecture.
